answered affirmatively by leaning ber he id upon his shoulder they were sitting in the pretty par lor of a cozy cottage on the outskirts of glenvilie their courtship hid nor bren a long one in fact it had been short e rn<'st nnd decisive and when mr peter potter parted with his be trothed that sundav night he con sidered himself a very lucky man in securing such t prize us polly perkins the prettiest lass in glenvilie who bad eaten more philopenas and broken more chicken breast-bones than any maiden for miles around true she was only twenty while peter was a bachelor way up in the i hii ties but he was a man oi property ' and carried a thriving grocery bus ii ss in ihe viilag ; and there were some j in greenville who would have fdt very much put out if they liadi overheard the engagement words spoken that sunday night christmas was now only two months off and polly at once began to procure i ber wedding trousseau she was a poor girl who mad ber living ly work 1 ing in a cotton factory and she had no relative in the world except an ol 1 maiden aunt with whom she lived she was a bright girl somewhat peit in manners and on occasion could be as tart as vinegar mr peter potter was a queer mentd compound lie was phenomenal ly un stable in bis views on religion and pol itics so much so in fact that be had won tbe name of peter chaiigoabout and no one more faithfully observed tbe maxim when you're among the romans do as tbe romans do than he in politics he was equally fickle one year lie whs an ardent democrat ihe next year he was a republican and once he figured as a bright and shining local light in tbe ranks of the inde pendent party peier potter was u man well liked by the people of glenvilie he was not stingy he was foremost in the works of charity and many a poor family to which enforced idleness or sickness had brought privation was the recipient of substantial gifts from bis store he was always a cheerful man and no social party iu glenvilie was considered complete without his presence and he was very popular with the gentler sex moreover he greatly enjoyed a practical joke even if he himself were the victim of it in this be could give and take with equal satisfaction to his risibilities in either case now when the news got around that he bad engaged himself to miss polly perkins the gossips made all sorts of remarks about the matter not nt all complimentary to mr pet r i'll bet a watermelon to a pumpkin seed 1 said bill jackson the post master th'tt peter potter won't be on hand when the time come of course he now thinks he loves miss perkins but he's likely to lie smitten with the cuaniis of saddle next week and with tin se of sue timkins before batiks giving conns poor polly perkins she's too nice a body to be trifled with and made the jest und jeer of all the girl < in thi town and this was the popular view taken of the situation and some of the gos sips were not dilatory in saying so much to miss perkins nevertheless she had faith in ber affianced and re ceived the tattle of busy bodies without allowing her good nature to become ruffled for a moment why said she to a neighbor one day do you suppose i'm going to go crazy if ire don't keep his word oh nol there's as good fish in the sea as ever was caught you know and then she laughed most heartily and went tripping along the roadside hamming a cheery air ol course much of this gossip reached tfee ears ol mr peter potter who however went about his hu>iness as usual and was not at all affected by rhe coldness which some of the mar riageable giils of the sewing society manifested when he met them on the street or at church as for the gent4e nifii â€” those fallows who had declared that his engagement to polly was one of his practical jokes â€” he said let vm have their fun i'll^hpw ein a joke yet that'll make em laugh on the other side of the mouth " well it was now within a week ot i ihristmas invitations to the wedding had been sent out with the
